Age-Adjusted Output

Filter the eligible U22 players by league and position. Marker color shows percentile within each player’s age group; star markers identify the featured three.

Ranking Method

The eligible comparison group includes players aged 17–21 with at least 450 minutes in the five leagues. Percentiles compare goal contributions per 90 among players of the same integer age. The age-16 cohort is omitted because only three players meet the minutes threshold, too few for a useful comparison.
